ICE asks for the detainee&rsquo;s full name, alien registration number (A-number) if known, date of birth, and country of birth.","question":"How do I locate a detainee at Hardin County Jail?"},{"answer":"ICE&rsquo;s page for this facility (checked October 16, 2026) lists no visiting days or times; it says only that detainees not under disciplinary action may receive visitors during the scheduled times appropriate to their age and/or gender. Each registered visitor may have 30 minutes, each detainee may have up to one visit a day, and all family and social visits are non-contact. Visitors must produce picture identification each time they visit, are subject to search, and no special or nonscheduled visits are allowed. Details are under Visiting in person below.","question":"What are visiting hours at Hardin County Jail?"},{"answer":"ICE&rsquo;s page for this facility (checked October 16, 2026) authorizes legal representatives to visit their clients Monday through Friday, between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m.; it lists no attorney visiting hours outside that window. Legal calls and video teleconference (VTC) meetings are scheduled by contacting the main office at (641) 939-8189, and appointments should be made 24 hours before the desired time.","question":"Can an attorney visit a detainee outside posted visiting hours?"},{"answer":"ICE publishes (319) 221-1550 for detainee information. The general facility line ((641) 939-8189) is for other facility questions.
